Abortion rights activists protest at White House, urge Biden to do more 

WASHINGTON (ABC) - Abortion rights protesters gathered outside the White House on Saturday to call on President Joe Biden to do more to protect access.

The action, organized by the Women's March, is part of a "Summer of Rage" in response to the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. Since the June 24 ruling ending nationwide abortion access, several states have already moved to limit or outright ban the procedure.

"We're putting our bodies on the line at the White House RIGHT NOW," the group wrote on Twitter. "Let's show President Biden there are millions more who want him to declare a state of emergency and protect abortion access NOW."

The demonstration came just one day after Biden, facing pressure from his own party to do more, signed an executive order aimed at protecting access to abortion care and other reproductive health services.
